08:27 cait           that's a scary password
08:28 Joubu          I loved it :-(
09:09 matts          To avoid this kind of mistakes, I always /query NickServ instead of /msg'ing him.
09:48 HB             Morning koha i'm running koha under ubuntu and missing 2 perl modules ... there was a command to install them (i dont find my notes on this one) annyone knows how
09:58 ashimema       if your running on packages you should probably already have all the dependancies..
09:58 ashimema       if not, cpan or cpanm is your friend
10:00 HB             was reading about that
10:08 cait           HB: which one are missing? some you don't really need
10:10 HB             i just try to be complete and get my notes back in order
10:14 HB             found it
10:15 HB             other question if i want to completely empty an existing koha is there a schortcut or do i better install a new one
10:21 magnuse        HB: i usually drop and recreate the db
10:22 HB             aha
10:22 magnuse        (login to mysql as the root user, then "drop database x", "create database x")
10:22 HB             sometimes its simple :)
10:22 magnuse        then you will have to run the web installer again
10:22 HB             ok
10:23 magnuse        so data-wise you start completely from scratch, but you don't have to do another installation
10:23 magnuse        ...of the code
10:23 HB             well its easy'er to do this so our ldap and stuff stays the same
10:24 HB             thx
10:26 HB             we planning on doing a second koha library (not a test) for lending out materials (not books) so
11:09 cait           hm thought there was a duplicate check in acq at some point
11:09 cait           but can't find it
11:09 cait           i remember it had 3 columns/options
11:33 sandeepbhavsar hi all
11:36 sandeepbhavsar I am using koha 3.08.10.002 git version. i have created 3-4 libraries under it and now i would like to delete the data of 2 libraries. please guide for the commands to delete the entire data of these 2 libraries
11:39 petter         hello #koha
11:44 magnuse        hello petter
11:45 petter         hei magnus!
11:45 petter         så hyggelig:)
11:47 sandeepbhavsar I am using koha 3.08.10.002 git version. i have created 3-4 libraries under it and now i would like to delete the data of 2 libraries. please guide for the commands to delete the entire data of these 2 libraries
11:48 magnuse        :-)
11:49 magnuse        sandeepbhavsar: there is no easy way to delete all data associated with one library in koha
11:49 magnuse        at least not that i know of
11:49 sandeepbhavsar from phpmyadmin
11:50 petter         in genral, librarians are not good at getting rid of stuff!
11:50 magnuse        hehe, true
11:51 sandeepbhavsar agree
11:51 sandeepbhavsar but is there any solution to delete the data of only 1 library from it
11:53 petter         only bibliographic data?
11:53 petter         or users, transaction history , and other data as well?
11:53 sandeepbhavsar yes
11:53 sandeepbhavsar only bibliographic data
11:57 petter         hm
11:57 petter         So the info on whitch library is on the items
11:58 petter         in the items table
11:58 petter         You can easily delete those
11:58 petter         Then you have to delete from biblioitems, those that no longer have any items
11:58 petter         I think?
11:58 petter         In any case, backup your database first!
11:59 petter         I'm not familiar enough with the database schema to give you the queries
11:59 petter         but something like: DELETE FROM items WHERE homebranch=<branch-to-delete> OR holdingbranch=<branch-to-delete>
12:04 cait           depending ont he catalog there might be recordswithout items - like for analytics
12:05 cait           so maybe keep track of the biblionumbers you delete items from
12:05 cait           and then delete the records in the list that no longer have items
12:05 cait           hi khall :)
12:05 khall          mornin cait!
12:05 cait           hm thinking about it, if you delete biblio ti should cascade to biblioitem and items
12:06 sandeepbhavsar suppose if i delete the library, will automatically the data associated with it will be deleted.
12:11 cait           sandeepbhavsar: to my knowledge - o
12:11 cait           no
12:11 cait           not all tables have constraints that would ensure that
12:13 Operator       hi cait!
12:14 pablito        hi everyone
12:15 pablito        in cataloging, is there are way for me know if a callnumber I am entering is a duplicate?
12:27 cait           pablito: currently not
12:28 cait           pablito: i think you could try to write a plugin for checking that
12:28 pablito        hmm ok, thanks
12:55 petter         Anyone build their own debian-packages lately?
12:56 petter         with debian/build_git_snapshot
13:02 kivilahtio     have a great weekend everyone!
13:02 kivilahtio     read you later!
13:02 francharb      good morning #koha
13:02 magnuse        hi francharb, bye kivilahtio
13:03 francharb      o/ magnuse
13:03 kivilahtio     one comes, the other goes... such is life
13:03 kivilahtio     exit

13:03 cait           petter: my coworker built 3.12.9 recently, but probably you are wondering about other versions?
13:04 petter         cait: I'm building 3.14 with one extra patch
13:04 petter         it builds fine
13:04 cait           :)
13:04 petter         but somehow the perl dependencies doesn't get installed
13:05 petter         dpkg -i koha-deps_3.14... fails
13:08 magnuse        any error message?
13:10 petter         the messages are about 100, like this: dpkg: Kravpdoblem hindrer oppsettet av koha-perldeps
13:10 petter         perl-dependency-x missing
13:10 petter         I followed the instructions here:
13:10 petter         http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Building_Debian_Packages_-_The_Easy_Way
13:11 petter         So I'm curious if it works for anyone else
13:11 petter         I'm guessing something went wrong in the build
13:13 magnuse        tcohen was the last one to edit that page - he might know something
13:14 petter         jepp, I'll ask him
13:31 oleonard       Hi #koha
13:33 magnuse        hiya oleonard
13:34 jcamins        petter: I build 3.12 packages frequently.
13:34 jcamins        petter: after dpkg -i you have to run apt-get install -f.
13:37 petter         jcamins: when I run apt-get install -f, koha-perldeps is uninstalled
13:37 jcamins        petter: sounds like you're missing an apt repo.
13:38 petter         ah, so I must add the koha repo as well? When installing my own packages?
13:38 jcamins        Or you have to host all the extra packages in your own repo.
13:38 jcamins        There are a bunch of dependencies on debian.k-c.org.
13:38 petter         I see, thanks!
13:42 magnuse        ah jcamins++
13:49 petter         Great, I'ts installing now, thanks again :)
13:50 dbs            oleonard: hoping my bootstrap RDFa patch fits with your general XSL approach
13:52 dbs            magnuse: took a look at the unimarc XSL but wasn't sure where (or if) types like Book / Map / Music get sorted out (varname "leaderMaterialType" in the marc21 xsl). might have just been too late for me though!
13:53 magnuse        dbs: i'm the normarc guy, not the unimarc guy ;-)
13:53 oleonard       dbs: I have had very little to do with the XSL, so you won't hurt my feelings
13:54 dbs            magnuse: ah! haven't looked at that yet, will bug you when I do (if someone else doesn't get there first!)
14:01 magnuse        dbs: if yu do get around to it you can bug me as much as you like!
14:02 magnuse        bug 10826 already exists, but it's probably not something i will have time for in the near future...

14:05 oleonard       Joubu: Your batch checkout project would be interesting in conjunction with khall's AJAX circ patch: Submit multiple barcodes by default, live-update the table of checkouts.
14:05 magnuse        so feel free to hijack it, dbs ;-)
14:06 khall          yes, that would be fanstastic oleonard! I wanted the next step in this project to be a fully ajax based checkouts page!
14:07 oleonard       We've been talking about it for years. I have a feeling the reason we haven't done it is it's hard :|
14:07 magnuse        sounds like that would make the checkout page snappier - that would make Viktor happy! :-)
14:07 khall          and that's basically how I was going to accomplish it ( except for the multiple barcodes at once thing )
14:07 khall          yes, I'm expecting it to be a slow process, there is *alot* that does on when checking out items
14:07 dbs            magnuse: sure thing! be warned that if I do grab it I'll push RDFa instead of microdata though :)

14:16 magnuse        obsolete or in need of a rebase?

14:49 magnuse        searching for someone!
14:49 magnuse        i have played with it a tiny bit, but not enough to tell others about it
14:50 Joubu          what are you expecting for?
14:50 magnuse        dunno - i just think it might be a handy tool to use for improving koha
14:51 magnuse        but i'm open to suggestions :-)
14:51 magnuse        i added it partly because the two others from oslo public library expressed an interest in it
14:52 Joubu          I can try to prepare something if nobody does it (in Frenglish, official language for the Hackfest)
14:52 magnuse        lol, that would be great!

14:57 * dbs          was a bit surprised there is no place to store library opening hours in stock koha, had been hoping to teach koha to publish per-library pages of info. Guess we could still put name / address / contact info, but hours seems like a necessary component
14:57 cait           what's the german version of frenglish? germanglish? *ponders*

15:53 Joubu          oleonard: bug 11763: the action list is opened above the button, is it wanted?
15:53 huginn`        04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=11763 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, koha-bugs, Needs Signoff , Consolidate fund action links into menu
15:54 oleonard       Joubu: I thought that would be better because it would be less likely to be displayed below the browser view
15:55 Joubu          oleonard: are you sure? There is the DT pager below the table
15:57 Joubu          khall: did you see my note on bug 11752 before passing qa on it?
15:57 huginn`        04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=11752 minor, P5 - low, ---, philippe.blouin, Passed QA , In OPAC, the serials details display the wrong periodicity
15:58 oleonard       Joubu: I don't understand.
15:59 khall          Joubu: nope, my bad. Should that bug go to Failed QA?
16:05 Joubu          oleonard: Not important, I signed it off :)
16:05 Joubu          khall: I don't know, I'm waiting an answer
16:05 Joubu          francharb: ?
16:05 oleonard       I was no fan of YUI but it was nice that YUI menus detected whether they would appear out of view and change direction accordingly
16:09 pablito        Joubu: I am trying to set the Shelving Location for certain book types
16:10 pablito        like Reference books in the Reference room while the regular books in General Stacks
16:14 francharb      Joubu, ?
16:14 wahanui        Joubu, is my FF installation was in french ?
16:15 Joubu          wahanui: ... maybe
16:15 wahanui        Joubu: sorry...
16:15 Joubu          francharb: could you have a look at bug 11752?
16:15 huginn`        04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=11752 minor, P5 - low, ---, philippe.blouin, In Discussion , In OPAC, the serials details display the wrong periodicity
16:15 oleonard       pablito: Your query looks correct to me. Do you get results for select count(*) from items where itype = 'REF'; ?
16:15 Joubu          It is written by Philippe
16:15 francharb      Joubu, yes
16:15 francharb      Je sais
16:15 francharb      ;)
16:17 pablito        oleonard: I do, but only a few entries...it should say thousands
16:32 pablito        oleonard: ah, i found the problem, i had an SQL before this one
16:36 * cait         waves
16:39 pablito        hi cait :-)
16:39 cait           hi :)
16:39 pablito        how's it going?
16:44 pablito        have a good night
16:44 pablito        gotta go
16:50 cait           oleonard++
17:27 reiveune       bye
17:34 gaetan_B       bye !
17:44 slef           is there a GBSD planned?
17:44 slef           GBSD?
17:44 wahanui        well, GBSD is Global Bug Squashing Day - http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/2013-11-15_Global_bug_squashing_day
17:45 oleonard       It's been a while slef, maybe you could propose one?
17:45 slef           I will, but I don't want to tread on anyone's calendars.
17:46 oleonard       Marseille hackfest is coming up, that's like a GBSW
17:46 * oleonard     pictures a Global Bug Squashing Wombat
17:47 slef           mmm, Wombat... does that cook well?
17:47 jcamins        slef: Bob or Irma might know.
17:48 slef           Koha Hackfest for March 10 – 14 2014 in Marseilles France.  Can anyone add that to "Upcoming Events" on http://koha-community.org/ easily? I've login problems to fix first.
18:03 talljoy        any suggestions for migrating a Koha 2.2 to 3.14.3?
18:03 jcamins        talljoy: Holy Water.
18:03 talljoy        considering flattening it out and pulling out the data to import into 3.14.
18:04 talljoy        but could install on 3.0 and upgrade 22 to 30 and then step it up to 3.14
18:04 talljoy        but yah.
18:04 talljoy        that 2.2 data structure is alien.
18:04 jcamins        talljoy: I don't upgrade 2.2 when I have to deal with it. I just export the data and migrate it like its a foreign ILS.
18:05 talljoy        that's how i'm leaning.  i see the marc in the marc_breeding  (who named that?)
18:05 talljoy        anything i need to look for in marc_blob_subfield or marc_biblio?
18:06 talljoy        i can parse out the stuff in items.  looks like category was the old 'itemtype'
18:07 talljoy        issues has old and current checkouts.
18:07 talljoy        jcamins this was pre zebra, no?
18:07 talljoy        which would explain some of the tables i'm seeing
18:08 slef           talljoy: I think I've seen rangi suggest the same as jcamins says too.
18:08 slef           and yes, 2.2 was pre-zebra
18:08 talljoy        that makes sense, i can slough off alot of this then.
18:09 druthb         and I, talljoy.  Anything prior to about 3.4, I just treat it like a foreign ILS.  Extract, mash, and import.  Attempting an upgrade is *madness*
18:09 talljoy        heh
18:09 * talljoy      is feeling crazed today
18:10 * oleonard     reminds everyone to stay vigilant lest the MARCs breed
18:10 druthb         it's your grey hairs to get doing it, but I don't recommend it.
18:10 talljoy        biblioitems contains the itemtype i thinks in 2.2?
18:11 druthb         yup
18:11 * talljoy      loves a new puzzle
18:12 talljoy        oleonard no joke.   scary business.  like gremlins marc is.
18:12 talljoy        keep it away from water.
18:16 talljoy        need water brb
18:19 magnuse        more marc?
18:19 wahanui        http://02varvara.files.wordpress.com/2011/04/01-how-about-no-bear.jpg?w=800
18:21 talljoy        you are correct wahanui
18:28 cait           oleonard: clean up frenzy?
18:29 oleonard       Yeah why not
18:29 cait           lots of patches :)
19:24 oleonard       When defining tags in MARC tag structures and Authority types should the tag field always be numeric?
19:25 jcamins        oleonard: that's probably not a reasonable assumption.
19:25 jcamins        @quote get 123
19:25 wahanui        http://xkcd.com/1172/
19:25 huginn`        jcamins: Quote #123: "rangi: #thingsihavelearnt if there is a mad scheme a library somewhere will be doing it ... except madder" (added by wizzyrea at 09:20 PM, March 30, 2011)
19:25 jcamins        It's a nice thought, though.
19:26 cait           oleonard: it can have letters i think
19:27 oleonard       Okay, I saw some unused validation code on the page for requiring numeric input and wondered it it was supposed to be in use
20:35 oleonard       When creating a new notice should code, name, and message subject all be required fields?
20:36 cait           hmm
20:36 cait           i think for slips you don't need  a subject
20:36 cait           but emails it makes sense
20:37 oleonard       ...but no way to know whether one is setting up an email or a slip, so you can't require it
20:38 cait           yeah
20:38 cait           was wondering if it would hurt to require it for slips
20:38 cait           on the other side... an email without a subject still works
20:38 cait           and not even email software requires it
20:40 oleonard       Seems like it would be doing the world a favor to require it for emails if we could
20:57 cait           oleonard: you have a point there
21:29 oleonard       Bye #koha have a good weekend
21:41 gml            hello.
21:41 gml            manage-marc-import.pl doesn't work, in the web interface it doesn't change from "0%", and looking into the code, it got stuck in BackgroundJob::new(), just before the return line.
21:41 gml            plz someone give me some light on that.
21:43 gml            *would
22:24 gml            plz someone would give me some light on that
22:24 gml            manage-marc-import.pl doesn't work, in the web interface it doesn't change from "0%", and looking into the code, it got stuck in BackgroundJob::new(), just before the return line.
22:53 jcamins        gml: the task may be running as a background job. It can take a while. It could also be that your file is too large. Or that your internet connection is glitchy. Or that you are out of disk space. Or that you are using Internet Explorer.
22:54 jcamins        But Friday evening/Saturday morning is not generally a good time to look for help on #koha. You might be better off sending an e-mail, since people might see the e-mail Monday morning when they get back to work.
23:01 gml            that's not a good time in my country too, the fridays' "happy hour" and all of this...
23:02 gml            I'm testing with a batch with only 1 record
23:04 gml            I've not considered a browser approach. I'm using Firefox, but I'd thought the problem could come from the client.
23:06 gml            I mean, I 'd not considered that the problem could come from the browser.
23:07 jcamins        Yeah, the browser will occasionally randomly decide not to refresh from the AJAX.
23:07 jcamins        Going to a different page and then following a link back to the batch often results in the import being finished.
23:09 jcamins        Well, the import finishes regardless, but you don't see the finished status without changing pages.
23:09 jcamins        Of course, that only applies if you are using Apache. If you're using any sort of fastcgi, all bets are off on the record importing.
23:12 jcamins        My rule of thumb is that staging/importing records doesn't work under Plack/fastcgi.
23:14 gml            The server is on Apache.
23:14 gml            what about BackgroundJob.pm?  perhaps do you know why is the execution stopping in there?
23:15 jcamins        Nope, sorry.
23:15 jcamins        I can't really help troubleshoot much, but out of curiosity, what do you mean by "stopping"?
23:18 gml            I put logaction "marks" across the code in BackgroundJob.pm, and in certain point some marks do not appear in log. That's the way I know about execution.
23:19 gml            But I'm supposing something about threads or some parallel thing,
23:20 jcamins        Oh, yeah, you can't use logging for debugging that code.
23:20 jcamins        STDOUT is closed.
23:20 jcamins        As is STDERR.
23:20 jcamins        Actually, I think *all* filehandles might be closed.
23:22 gml            all from STDERR appears in koha-error.log , right?
23:23 jcamins        Except when you're working with the import code. In the import code, STDERR is basically just thrown out.
23:30 gml            I'll find out the koha support emails
23:30 gml            thank you jcamins
23:30 gml            and thx to someone for the security release news
